WHY WAS THIS GENERIC ASS MOTHER F*CKER SO DIFFICULT TO DRAW?!

Originally I wanted him to look kinda like Eddie Valiant from Who Framed Roger Rabbit but lankier, more skinny. And he did end up kinda like I wanted but I don't know. Also his color kinda fucked me up, I wanted him to be about as yellow as humanly possible but after an actual week of researching I came to learn that there is no properly yellow melanin, it's apparently only brown, black or red so for him to look yellow he had to have a skin condition that I didn't want to go into which ended up throwing his whole color scheme off, not to mention the pose, IT'S APPARENTLY REALLY DIFFICULT TO POSE A SNAKE, and humanizing a snake in a way consistent with it is apparently very hard too. And the background, a solid snake shaped background with some extra personal detail should be very simple right? RIGHT? It was not, oh boy it was not.

Well, at least I finished him. Maybe in a few years once I'm a better artist I'll re-do him, but for now this will have to do. All in all it's probably not the worst thing I've posted, definitely not the worst character design I've made. Just. . . A little dissapointing, I thought I'd do a better job with this one. This did make me appreciate the animators of the movie a lot more though, if making a humanized snake is this hard actually having a snake character and making them do stuff in a way that looks interesting is probably even harder.
